DUBLIN, Ireland--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c93209) has announced the
addition of China Natural Rubber Market Review & Outlook 2007-2008
Proposal to their offering.

   In recent years, with the increasing demand for cars in China, the
tyre industry has witnessed rapid growth, which leads to expanded
demand for natural rubber in China. To date, China has surpassed Japan
and the US to become the largest rubber consuming country in the
world.

   In 2005, Typhoon Damrey played havoc with part of the rubber
forests in Yunnan and Hainan. The yield in 2005 was only 510,000 tons,
down by 10.6% from 2004. In 2007, with the recovery of rubber forests
and the improvement of tapping technologies, it is expected that the
output of natural rubber should recover to the level of 2004 or even
better.

   The growth of natural rubber output in China is coupled with rapid
growing natural rubber consumption in the country. Does the increase
in output meet the consumption demands in China? How will the surging
demands for natural rubber in China affect the supply-demand relation
in the Chinese market? How will the import of natural rubber evolve?
How much influence will the development of synthetic rubber have on
the natural rubber market? What will be the trend for the natural
rubber market in China in 2008? All these are questions to be answered
systematically in this report.

   Hopefully, we shall make some correct judgements for the future
natural rubber market in this teport through in-depth analysis and
studies of the natural rubber market in China in 2007.
